It should be known that the baby's small head is in the stage of rapid development, and the development of cognition, movement, emotion and other aspects has made rapid progress. Appropriate toys are important learning tools. Therefore, according to the different age of the baby, give TA age-appropriate educational toys to help TA improve various abilities!

Newborn babies are all "short-sighted" and can only see close things clearly. The distance they can see clearly is roughly the distance between mother and child during breastfeeding. At this stage, the baby prefers to see sharp black and white patterns rather than subtle patterns and pastel colors.

Stimulate the baby's visual development through some color cards, which is conducive to stimulating brain development. In addition, DHA is equally important for baby's visual development. Maury's study showed that supplementation with optimal levels of DHA during infancy resulted in better visual acuity development at 12 months of age. (The optimal level of DHA in the study has reached the international authoritative recommendation)

0-6 months is the period of extremely rapid development of the baby's brain. Hundreds of billions of brain cells form more synapses, connect quickly, and build a "brain Internet". Around 3 months after birth, the number of synapses peaks at about 10,000 trillion. At this stage, giving the baby a variety of environmental stimuli (such as different toys, objects, words) can promote the connection of brain cells more closely, the transmission of information is faster, and the brain develops better.
​​
Mead Johnson Tip: In addition to external stimulation, adequate brain nutritional support is particularly important. During this peak period of brain development, nutrition is the basic material for the development and proliferation of brain cells, and DHA, an important component of brain cell membranes, is the key to the development and connection of brain cells. A number of studies have proved that supplementing with optimal levels of DHA can make babies think more quickly and have better emotional intelligence. The DHA levels in these studies have reached the DHA levels recommended by international authorities.
​​
Therefore, the cultivation of smart babies is inseparable from your scientific cultivation, which includes both high-quality parent-child companionship and comprehensive support of high-quality nutrition. Supplement high-quality DHA, support the baby to reach the DHA level recommended by international authorities, and he
